The
much-awaited
movie
Madrasapattinam
has
released.
Set
in
the
backdrop
of
ancient
Chennai,
the
film
revolves
around
an
18-yr
old
British
girl,
who
falls
in
love
with
a
washer-man
in
a
pre-independence
era.
Filmmaker
AL
Vijay,
who
is
known
for
making
exceptional
attempts
over
choosing
unique
scripts,
has
chosen
best
script
till
date.
Director
Vijay
has
really
worked
hard
on
screenplay,
which
can
be
seen
on
screen.
But
we
can
see
the
shades
of
Lagaan
and
Titanic.
Story:
Amy
(Amy
Jackson)
is
the
daughter
of
Madrasapattinam
British
governor.
She
comes
to
India
at
the
time
of
Indian
freedom
revolution.
British
Raj
plans
to
construct
a
golf
course
by
demolishing
Dhobi
ghat,
where
the
hero
of
the
film
Parithi
(Aarya)
resides.
He
opposes
to
this
plan
and
fights
for
justice.
An
angry
British
servant
throws
a
challenge
Parithi
to
play
wrestling
match,
which
looks
like
a
Bollywood
movie
Lagaan.
Meanwhile,
Amy
likes
Parthi's
daring
attitude
and
falls
in
love
with
him.
But
this
angers
Britsh
men.
Emerging
from
different
societal
classes,
now,
this
couple
has
to
now
fight
back
everything
that
hassles
their
relationship.
Whether
they
succeed
in
love
or
not,
should
be
seen
on
screen.
Plus:
First
of
all,
we
should
thank
art
director
Selva
Kumar,
who
has
erected
the
beautiful
sets
of
1940's
Madras.
He
has
in
fact
recreated
the
old
Madras
and
Nirav
Shah
has
captured
that
in
camera
lens
wonderfully
and
it's
a
delight
to
watch
the
scenes
of
that
era
on
motion
picture.
GV
Prakash
has
blended
his
background
music
very
well
and
his
songs
have
already
won
the
hearts
of
the
audience.
Coming
back
to
the
performances
of
the
actors,
lead
stars
Aarya
and
British
actress
Amy
Jackson
have
given
excellent
performance.
Aarya
has
really
worked
hard
to
look
like
Hercules
and
audience
will
love
to
watch
him
as
a
wrestler.
Nasser,
Cochin
Haneefa,
Balasingh,
M
S
Baskar,
Balaji,
Kishore
have
done
justice
to
their
role.
Vijay
has
proved
that
he
is
here
to
stay,
since
it
is
a
period
film,
it
required
lots
of
research
and
dedication
while
penning
the
script.
He
has
taken
best
out
of
his
team.
Minus:
It
seems
that
the
director
has
not
done
research
on
dialogues.
The
dialect
of
1940s
and
current
are
slight
different
from
each
other.
He
has
adapted
contemporary
language
and
it
is
not
convincible.
Vedict:
Don't
miss
the
movie.
